How to troubleshoot installation auto-sklearn?
I tried to do pipenv install auto-sklearn on my Linux environment, but I got this (in the end):
note: This error originates from a subprocess, and is likely not a problem with pip.
ERROR: Failed building wheel for scikit-learn
ERROR: Could not build wheels for scikit-learn, which is required to install pyproject.toml-based projects
[0m
⠇ Installing auto-sklearn...✘ Installation FailedI installed swig through sudo apt -y install swig and it returned me no error.
In order to address the error, I tried a manual installation of scikit-learn, following these steps, link1, link2, but I always end up on missing wheels.
Any help?/Guidance? *I use WSL to run Ubuntu 22.04.2 LTS on my windows machine. I also have C++ compiler.
